Localization

Please note the l10n (aka Localization) elements of the activity (ie: the POT file/directory link — [http:link POT] or [[PO page]]. You should also link to the activity/l10n subpage with po files and status if it exists.

Installation

To manually install activities from a USB stick, go to the developer's console and type:
sugar-install-bundle /media/<USB stick name>

trial-3 update: when you click on an xo file from a browser, it will download; from the sidebar, add it to the journal; from the journal, resume the file. This will install the activity on your XO.

Activities will eventually be launchable or installable from the mesh, taskbar, journal, clipbar, and browser.
